Yep, if you get the right resistor(Which it isnt that hard since the blue mark is on the right one) then you'll deffinetly see a difference It doesnt eliminate all vdroop, but my vdroop is only 0.014 under idle, and 0.014 under load under any circumstance, so thats very damn good IMO.

I knew a pencil was handy for something

When i did this mod on my P5B-Plus, it yielded even more results than with this board, but I'm very satisfied.

What effect does this have on warranty? Void it, I guess?

No it does not void it. Its just a small bit of lead on a tiny transistor. It can easily be whiped off with no trace of it ever being there if you needed to RMA

I never posted my results with the vdroop mod. I get 1.376v at Load and Idle with not a budge with 1.4 set in BIOS. This just goes to show that this vdroop mod works great on this board .

Thanks for the info! I'm going to try this.

I have a question for everyone: Why isn't this done at the factory where the mainboards are made?
